I sent my daughter off to do this and would seriously tell anyone thinking to go away with them to reconsider it is very much a charity for teenagers and young peoples who’s family are loaded.We raised and scrimped and saved £6,000 for her to go and did we see any of this money?.No she was given a tiny salary which didn’t even cover basic needs and I could not afford to keep sending her money just to feed herself!.I wanted to take her home due to this salary being so small but couldn’t… Read Full Review

I was placed at a school for people with disabilities and while on Training they didn’t have the capacity to brief us on those special circumstances, since we were the only ones going to a social care project. At the project the hosts didn’t mention what kind of disabilities the children had and I took a flash light (which had different settings, one being stroboscopic) with me. One of those sweet souls had epilepsy and that could have ended very badly, luckily it didn’t. However, I felt… Read Full Review

Everything about the experience was completely disorganised. Staff have no interest in you once you are abroad and are completely focused on recruiting the next round of volunteers. Lots of hidden costs to be paid that make it completely inaccessible to anyone from a non-wealthy background. Any problems experienced while abroad are met with complete disinterest and staff are extremely deceitful in regards to decision making. Would recommend organising your own gap year as you will experience… Read Full Review

In-country support is non-existent - you'd do much better to organise your own placement or just travel instead. For £6k you would presume training in-country and assistance if things go wrong - but Project Trust staff are totally disinterested in problems… Read Full Review

This exactly what happened to my daughter during her gap years with Project Trust. Project Trust is unreliable, untrustworthy and have issues with transparency

My experience with project trust was pretty bad. They placed me with a girl who looked down on me because of where I was from. Although project trust purposely puts you with someone so that you learn from them I had a terrible time living with someone who thought she was better than me. Overall, they are not inclusive or welcoming of people from certain regions and look at you differently if you have a 'certain accent'. I was so upset and felt so homesick sometimes and they did nothing to help… Read Full Review

When I was in South Africa our support in country guide was not present during departures back home. When there were issues with our tickets, we were left in Johannesburg airport with noone to ask for support.

They ask for that much money, but they do not make any profit! they are a charity and they try to provide the best gap year to their volunteeres!
I would recomend them any day.
They are one of the only companies that have a selection course to make sure they can offer the best gap year possible and make sure you are ready and will enjoy the experience!…
